Quoted from Lhyrgoif:

Never had the need to buy a separate DMD display but realized a standard DMD is about 300$, for 100$ more I can get a ColorDMD so if I do the replacement path it will probably be in color.

You can likely also find a new or used monocolor LCD/LED display for $100-$150 which will be completely silent in operation. Since this is a low voltage display, it will not use any of the HV components on the driver board; you can and should remove both fuses from the board at this point.

Quoted from Beaverz:

OP never stated it's clearly heard from across the room

Quoted from Lhyrgoif:

Well, neither of my 3 other DMD games does this. If the sound was kind of low I would perhaps understand it, but the sound can be heard from the other side of the room.
